Also refraction isn’t just ‘left or right’

2020-02-07 21:27:06 UTC  

here

2020-02-07 21:27:14 UTC  

extrme refraction

2020-02-07 21:27:24 UTC  

Yes, that's what I said earlier.
A mirage refraction would be upside down

2020-02-07 21:27:34 UTC  

Not necessarily

2020-02-07 21:28:04 UTC  

Not all mirages are upside down

2020-02-07 21:28:11 UTC  

I can post pics to defend

2020-02-07 21:28:30 UTC  

Okay

2020-02-07 21:28:50 UTC  

seeing thing upside down? only ever seen that through lense

2020-02-07 21:28:57 UTC  

Well

2020-02-07 21:29:06 UTC  

A medium can act as a lense

2020-02-07 21:29:24 UTC  

Sometimes

2020-02-07 21:29:30 UTC  

jeah like water

2020-02-07 21:29:32 UTC  

or ice

2020-02-07 21:29:33 UTC  

Yes

2020-02-07 21:29:34 UTC  

or glass

2020-02-07 21:29:52 UTC  

but with air ive never seen it

2020-02-07 21:30:02 UTC  

I’m sure it’s possible

2020-02-07 21:30:08 UTC  

If you've seen a mirage you have

2020-02-07 21:30:24 UTC  

a mirage thats upside down?

2020-02-07 21:30:28 UTC  

Yeah

2020-02-07 21:30:35 UTC  

hmm maybe

2020-02-07 21:30:46 UTC  

And there is 2 types

2020-02-07 21:30:59 UTC  

when its really hot and youre looking along an asphalt street i guess

2020-02-07 21:31:10 UTC  

Yep

2020-02-07 21:31:21 UTC  

Sorry @He Cute, I must've made the video on my home computer. I'll see if I can post it tonight when I get home. if not, it wouldn't take me long to recreate.

2020-02-07 21:31:21 UTC  

It's flipping the image

2020-02-07 21:31:32 UTC  

but not sure if i was seeing things upside down.

2020-02-07 21:31:42 UTC  

Yes but refraction doesn’t always flip the image

2020-02-07 21:32:04 UTC  

Not whole image, just the very bottom close to the ground

2020-02-07 21:32:37 UTC  

Then it causes image to go left to right like pencil in cup

2020-02-07 21:32:52 UTC  

It doesn’t have to be left or right

2020-02-07 21:33:03 UTC  

Why does the length of the day increases as you go south during december? On a flat earth you would be moving away from the sun

2020-02-07 21:33:05 UTC  

maybe if you tilt your head

2020-02-07 21:33:11 UTC  

Empirical Experimental Evidence

2020-02-07 21:33:13 UTC  

?

2020-02-07 21:34:09 UTC  

also that kind of mirage happens when its really hot while long distance observations are made when its really cold close to the surface (over water)

2020-02-07 21:36:06 UTC  

I think its because the earth is a globe

2020-02-07 21:36:14 UTC  

well jeah and that

2020-02-07 21:37:18 UTC  

I’m not confident enough in what I think to claim it
